Email SMTP help
 

since I formatted my hard drive a week or so ago I can no longer send out emails. I was origionally with BT Openworld which I think is now BT yahoo, but can anyone tell me the SMTP outgoing server name ??

I've searched all the BT sites with no luck :(

Cheers

Phil

Try:

mail.btinternet.com

Google gives loads of links that may or may not be useful, search 'bt yahoo smtp'.
